Great to hear Ben!! Go get that black one!

At the dealer I bought the car from, we talked numbers and agreed on the price, and then when I was in Finance I found that the payment I was quoted already included their Zurich extended warranty bullshit. They didn’t try to sell me on it and then add it after the fact, they had it added it in...

All the dealers out here are snakes, I eventually gave up and paid $5k over from Car Pros Honda in El Monte. That was the best deal I could find as of December ‘23. Unless you somehow get very lucky, you’ll probably have to look out of state for an MSRP deal. But then you’ll have to factor in...

Something is very wrong here. Also dealing with all the clamps on this exhaust seems like it would be a pain in the ass.

They really didn’t make it as easy as they could have to get access to that area on the FL5. I had a GR86 prior to my FL5 and miss how easy it was to change the oil on that car.

For sure doing a RMM at the same time as exhaust is going to amplify the NVH. Makes sense to do both while you're down there, but it's also going to blur the line between how much is RMM related versus how much is exhaust related.

I‘m sorry Ben, it’s frustrating enough as an outsider, can’t imagine how it is for you. I hope they honor their policy. Doesn’t seem like that much to ask! Hang in there.

Put these people on blast and let the word travel. Your story is all over the FB groups, a lot of people are aware of the crash and would be very interested in hearing how you’ve been wronged here. It may cause enough talk to change things, but also a PSA about Lockton should be spread far and...

Damn, what a bummer. I hope you’ll get a chance to pull anything good/useful off the car. If you don’t mind posting more pics, I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s curious. The car looks to have held up surprisingly well. Hope you‘re not too sore, I know it can take day or so for things to start...

Yeah I agree with the gent above, wouldn't do anything beyond a lip spoiler with tape alone.

How did your Remark Ti exhaust fare? Did you happen to get any other pics/angles of the car?

Glad you’re ok Ben, I’ve been following your journey with the R and was stunned to see your vid on YT. No shame in screaming, you never know what the outcome will be, scary as hell. Heal up fast! RIP R.

Well done!

I believe only the front doors and the roof are common to other/lesser Civics

Good calls. I forgot about the splash guard access. I had a GR86 previously and I really miss how easy it was to access everything required for an oil change.

In no specific order and perhaps not exactly 5 of each lol Like: 1. Agressive yet clean styling/Flared bodywork 2. Unique/Don't see many around 3. Overall driving experience/Feel/Power(and nice gains with BBO's + OTS tune) 4. Confidence I have driving the car and its ability to do what I want...

I daily drive my car with the Remark Ti, it does not drone. It is the best of both worlds really. When you're crusing at low load, it can be very quiet. But when you get on it, it really wakes up and sounds great! You also get a nice turbo spool whine like on Diesel trucks. I love that sound! I...

I have the Remark Ti and it’s awesome

While no shipping company is perfect, I have found through experience that FedEx has been more reliable than UPS. That being said, there is always some risk and definitely collecting insurance from a carrier takes time.

I‘ve sent countless thousands if not tens of thousands of dollars worth of items via FedEx Priority Overnight and they are as good as it gets. I sent my ECU out that way and it was sent back that way. I had the ECU back in my hands within 48 hours. You can also insure the package for extra peace...
